My bad!  Post #63 describes data loss in GIMP ver. 2.7.4 with thin
lines. This is due to using a different Brush than previously. The
standard GIMP Brush does not produce thin lines but complete data loss
while GIMP Brushes #1 and #2 give the thin lines before and after
dropouts.

Just loaded the Linux Mint 11 Gnome Live CD and tried drawing in Gimp
2.6.11 without tablet drivers installed for my Genius Mousepad 8x6 and
without NVIDIA drivers installed. It worked absolutely perfect! No
streaks to the edge of the screen at all. No dropouts in the lines
whatsoever. Full pressure sensitivity was observed. Scribbled as fast as
I could with no problems. But then again Linux Mint 11 is based on
UBUNTU 11.04 and everything works fine there. The Linux Mint 12 release
candidate will be available around November 11th, based on UBUNTU 11.10.
But they are using Gnome 3.2 with Mint Gnome Shell Extentions (MGSE) and
MATE to replace Gnome 2.32 instead of Unity and Gnome Classic. This
presents and interesting opportunity to see if Unity has screwed up
things in UBUNTU since Linux Mint 12 RC is a permutation of Ubuntu
11.10.

I will pursue the Linux Mint 12 RC to test against the bug here in
Ubuntu and report back.
